China has greatly increased its national targets for wind power installations, aiming for 1.3 terawatts by 2030 and 5 TW by 2060, a move that the Global Wind Energy Council has hailed as critical for global climate efforts.

- By ZHENG XIN

The Beijing Declaration on Wind Energy 2.0 unveiled at the China Wind Power conference in Beijing last month sets a goal for China's cumulative wind power installed capacity to reach 1.3 TW by 2030, at least 2 TW by 2035 and 5 TW by 2060.

China’s ambitious targets instill optimism that the world can meet its broader climate goals, said Ben Backwell, the council's chief executive.

The new goals mark a substantial increase from the initial Beijing declaration in 2020, which had projected at least 800 gigawatts by 2030 and 3 TW by 2060, he said.
